Ibbanwala

While Ibbanwala isn't home to many top sights, Colombo City Centre and Chabad of Sri Lanka are some notable places to visit nearby.

Ibbanwala
The Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMICH), is a convention center located in Colombo. Built between 1970 and 1973, the convention center was a gift from the People's Republic of China in memory of Solomon Ridgeway Dias Bandaranaike, Prime Minister of Sri Lanka from 1956 to 1959.
The construction of the Hall was carried out by a joint Sri Lankan and Chinese workforce with a considerable portion of the building materials being imported from China.

In 1998 a small Exhibition Centre, the Sirimavo Bandaranaike Memorial Exhibition Centre, was built on the grounds as a gift from China.
The BMICH premises is managed by the S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike National Memorial Foundation (BNMF) which is chaired by the President of Sri Lanka.
The BNMF has an academic wing specialized in International Relations, Languages & Cultural Studies named "Bandaranaike Centre for International Studies

Kollupitiya

While visiting Kollupitiya, you might make a stop by sights like Casino Marina Colombo and Galle Face Beach.

Kollupitiya
Beira lake is situated just 1km away from the heart of Colombo. It has been one of the top tourist destinations in the commercial capital, Colombo as Gangarama Temple is located just next to Beira lake. I really recommend this place for you who are visiting Sri Lanka. Other than the religious background, it's a great place to capture some water birds as well.

Hunupitiya

When in Hunupitiya, you can plan a visit to Colombo Lotus Tower and Colombo City Centre, some noteworthy sights in the nearby area.
